you. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to
any personally identifiable information while

for any purpose other than providing us or you
with products or services. Of course, we cannot
guarantee their compliance with our requests.
- We use e-mail addresses to analyze trends,
administer our Web site, and track the movement
of our Users. We also use e-mail address to
gather broad demographic information that is
aggregated for our internal use, and we may
provide this information to third parties ("Aggregate

while on our Web site.

ACCORDANCE WITH ACCEPTED STANDARDS OF PRACTICE
WITHIN THE HEALTH SERVICES SETTING. BY CHOOSING

YOU DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK AND THAT OF THE CLIENT.
IF YOU CHOOSE TO USE THIS WEB SITE TO TRANSMIT

- We may from time to time seek to have our

organizations. Such certifications may require

We will request that each such certification
organization not further use or disclose Submissions
for any purpose other than auditing this Web
site for compliance with its certification qualifications.

| Protection
of Certain Information |
- Our goal is to eliminate the possibility of
third party access to information maintained
by the User in the course of providing health
services to a patient concerning the patient
and services provided and your Submissions.
The foregoing is stored with that in mind. Our
staff must abide by our Privacy Statement and
those who violate it are subject to disciplinary
action, up to and including termination of employment.
We will store all information and data in our
database and/or on the database of the host
of the DRHS Web site.
- All clinical data exchanged through the DRHS
Web site is stored on and transmitted using servers
that meet all current security requirements
and regulations.
- DRHS provides a means for its Users to communicate
electronically with other DRHS Users via a 128
bit encrypted internal e-mail system ("Secure
Transmission" or "Intranet").
Therefore, all Secure Transmissions, including
attached files are handled in accordance with
this Privacy Statement. However, if a DRHS User
sends an electronic communication from the DRHS
system to a non-DRHS recipient, or an electronic
communication to a DRHS recipient other than
over the Intranet, then any such transmission
is not a Secure Transmission and is not covered
under this Privacy Statement and may, in some
circumstances, constitute a violation of this
Web site's Terms of Use. If you have a question
regarding any transmission, please contact DRHS
either by submitting a help ticket or calling
DRHS at (434) 799-2399.
